This two-colour beret-style hat is perfect for those partial skeins of sock yarn where there’s not enough left to make a sock but still enough for a project!
It’s designed to be the perfect weight for a lightweight spring hat, and the Mosaic Knitting technique means that it’s an easy knit without the fear of taming colourwork floats!
